The IBS Discrete Mathematics Group had its second “DIMAG Internal Workshop” at the St. Johns Hotel of Gangneung on November 15-17, 2021. Participants include almost all current members of DIMAG, Cheolwon Heo from Sungkyunkwan University, and Semin Yoo from KIAS. Every participant presented open problems informally.
The IBS discrete mathematics group welcomes Dr. Linda Cook, a new research fellow at the IBS discrete mathematics group from August 1, 2021. She received her Ph.D. from the Program in Applied and Computational Mathematics at Princeton University under the supervision of Prof. Paul Seymour. She is interested in structural graph theory and its algorithmic applications.
Pascal Gollin from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group has been appointed as the IBS Young Scientist Fellow as of August 1, 2021. The title of his research proposal was “Structural questions for infinite graphs, digraphs, and matroids“. Congratulations!
The IBS discrete mathematics group welcomes William Overman, a visiting graduate student from the University of California, Irvine. He was a visiting undergraduate student two years ago. He is planning to stay with us until the end of August 2021.
On March 1, 2021, the IBS Biomedical Mathematics Group (BIMAG/의생명수학그룹) is established. It is led by its Chief Investigator, Prof. Jae Kyoung Kim (김재경) from the Department of Mathematical Sciences of KAIST. BIMAG is located on the 3rd floor of the Theory Building of the IBS HQ. As of March 2021, the IBS Center for Mathematical and Computational Sciences has three independent groups; Discrete Mathematics Group (DIMAG), Data Science Group, and Biomedical Mathematics Group (BIMAG).
On January 4, 2021, Pascal Gollin from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group received the “Research of the Year” award from the president of IBS. Congratulations!
Dabeen Lee (이다빈) from the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group has been appointed as the IBS Young Scientist Fellow as of January 1, 2021. The title of his research proposal was “Combinatorial Optimization for Data-Driven Decision Making“. Congratulations!
With the vision of “Making Discoveries for Humanity and Society,” the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) was founded in 2011 by the Korean government to promote basic science in Korea. To date, IBS has 31 Research Centers and each Center has been yielding outstanding results in various research fields.
The IBS “Young Scientist Fellowship” started in 2016 to play an active role in fostering the next generation of basic science leaders. We believe this Fellowship offers junior scientists opportunities to conduct independent research by utilizing state-of-the-art infrastructure and to grow on the basis of research collaborations with leading researchers.
We hope that the Fellowship serves as a stepping stone for our researchers to mature into leading researchers in basic science.

The IBS Discrete Mathematics Group (DIMAG) in Daejeon, Korea invites applications for one postdoctoral research fellowship position.
URL: https://dimag.ibs.re.kr/hiring/
DIMAG is a research group that was established in December 1, 2018 at the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), led by Prof. Sang-il Oum. DIMAG is located at the headquarters of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in Daejeon, South Korea, a city of 1.5 million people.
The position is available for individuals who are within the first five years after obtaining their Ph.D at the date of appointment or be expected to obtain a Ph.D within three months from the date of appointment. Successful candidates for postdoctoral research fellowship positions will be new or recent Ph.D.’s with outstanding research potential in all fields of discrete mathematics with emphasis on structural graph theory, extremal graph theory, combinatorial optimization, matroid theory, or fixed-parameter tractable algorithms.
This appointment is for two years, and the starting salary is no less than KRW 57,000,000. The appointment is one time renewable up to 3 years in total contingent upon the outstanding performance of the researcher. The expected appointment date is September 1, 2021. This is a purely research position and will have no teaching duties.
A complete application packet should include:
For full consideration, applicants should email items 1, 2, 3, and 4 and arrange their recommendation letters emailed to dimag@ibs.re.kr by December 5, 2020, Saturday.
Recommendations letters forwarded by an applicant will not be considered.
DIMAG encourages applications from individuals of diverse backgrounds.
In the unlikely event of closing the Center, the employment contract will be terminated accordingly. For Korean citizens who have not yet completed their military duty: IBS는 병역특례지정기관입니다. IBS is a designated institute for alternative military service.
The IBS Discrete Mathematics Group welcomes Prof. Heesung Shin (신희성) from Inha University, Incheon, Korea. He will visit the IBS Discrete Mathematics Group for 1 year until August 31, 2021 during his sabbatical leave from Inha University. He received his Ph.D. from KAIST under the supervision of Prof. Dongsu Kim. He was a postdoctoral researcher at CNRS and a research assistant professor at POSTECH. In 2011, he moved as an assistant professor to Inha University, where he is currently a professor.
